PA's a big place, can you narrow it down a little further?

sorry should have clarified..philly area

are you looking for a small or large hospital? are you looking for slowor fast paced? are you looking for good or o.k. money? I can help you if you give me more info. just a hint south central PA is very reasonable in housing cost and everything in general.

I would prefer large hospital in fast paced setting with good money!!!!!! Einsten called me after I submitted my resume and i have an interview, howver I do not want to liimit my options being that I am not familiar with the area.

Thanks for the responses

How much can new grads expect o get???

Hey Sara,

I replied to your other ? also. I jsut graduated school Aug 07 and work at Lehigh Valley Hospital in Allentown, PA in the ED!!! Whoo Hooo. It is a level 1 trauma center, one of 4 Burn Centers in the state, plus they have a peds specialty. The ED is very busy with the helicopter service getting flights in from about 8-10 different counties. There are some people from the philly area who work there as well (probably a 50 minute drive). As a new grad, you will proabably start out in low to mid 20's. LVH also has an awesome critical care internship that I just completed. They also offer free benefits for you and your family (if applicable). They have a lot of perks. you can apply online. Let me know if there is anything else I can help you with.

Send me a message!

good luck!

Brian

Temple(TUH) has numerous opportunities for new grads(ASN & BSN). I'm not certain of the pay but I keep hearing positive things from nurses employed there. I've been thinking about this a lot as I prepare to transition to RN.

Welcome to Philly-a great place to be a nurse.
